Charlie Sheen bought Lawrence Taylor’s Super Bowl ring

Legendary linebacker Lawrence Taylor’s Super Bowl XXV ring was up for sale, and a legend from a different industry ended up with the winning bid.

It’s being reported by Jay Glazer that Charlie Sheen paid $230K for the ring, adding to his sports memorabilia stash. Sheen also owns Babe Ruth’s 1927 World Series ring, and at one time was in possession of the ball that rolled between Bill Buckner’s legs during the 1986 World Series.

No doubt the warlock will be using his latest purchase to funnel drugs into his body somehow.

L.A. Kings give Rainn Wilson tickets in incredibly awesome fashion

The Los Angeles Kings have advance to the Stanley Cup Finals, and celebrities are taking notice.

Office star Rainn Wilson tweeted the following, and in response the Kings sent him some tickets for a game in a very cool way if you’re a fan of the show.

Wilson, aka Dwight Schrute, and co-worker Jim Halpert often exchange in shenanigans on the show, which at one point included putting Dwight’s stapler in jello.

So as you can see, it was super cool and awesome of the Kings to deliver the tickets in jello. I might root for them in the Finals solely because of this, which shows just how depressing being obsessed with a show can get.

Jay really couldn’t have done a better job nailing down Stephen A.’s mannerisms and idiosyncrasies, this part of Weekend Update was brilliant.

I would like to see a “debate” on SNL between Smith and Skip Bayless, with Taran Killam playing everyone’s least favorite sports talk show participant.

Pharoah and Killam were great as Lil Wayne and Eminem last year, so another pairing would be amazing.

Kris Humphries isn’t exactly respected by most sports fans, and it would seem that he’s perceived by most to be a selfish, attention seeking douchebag.

So to help clear his image and poke a little fun at himself, Humphries paired together with Funny or Die to make a sketch embracing his douchebag profile.

Rob Gronkowski and Ndamukong Suh to compete on dating show

Fox’s singing show The Voice has apparently warranted a dating game ripoff show that will include several athletes.

Rob Gronkowski and Ndamukong Suh, along with retired NFLer Warren Sapp, who was recently disposed of by the NFL Network, will be competing.

Pauly D, The Situation and Joe Jonas to name a few non-sports celebrities will also be taking part.

The show will feature four celebrities seated facing away from the prospective, non-famous suitor, who will try to charm them with his or her voice and personality. If the celebs like what they hear, they can turn around. At least that’s how it works on The Voice.

The show will be called The Choice, and will feature Carmen Electra among the women on the celebrity panel.

I still refuse to call him Metta World Peace.

This appearance was originally scheduled for two days after the James Harden incident, but was pushed back for obvious reasons.

Floyd Mayweather’s entourage now includes Justin Bieber

So Floyd Mayweather faced Miguel Cotto in the ring on Saturday night, winning in a close bout.

Naturally he brought along a star-studded entourage to carry his title belts, including Triple H, 50 Cent and, oddly enough, Justin Bieber.

Congratulations to the aptly titled Money Team, or should I say the even more aptly titled Locked Up Team come June 1st.
